Add volleyball / beach volleyball as an activity type

[Gerykah]

   I noticed happily you recently added some new sports in the line with sport types on Strava.But still I cannot see the option for choosing  VoLLeyBall among them all. And I and many more users I guess, would love to see it!  :))

   Thanks in advance :))))

Has anyone received feedback from Strava about this issue? Maybe it is about time to improve their customer support quality!?

[VoratussIntasee]

Any movement for adding volleyball so far?

[kszysztof]

one more vote for adding volleyball - seriously why is it omitted in the app and pickleball/badminton is present?

I am little disappointed that this post is from ‎01-20-2023 and nothing happened in the meantime. Yes, please, add volleyball ASAP!!

I play beach volleyball and while my Apple Watch does have that workout option, Strava doesn’t! It uploads my workout to my feed as “afternoon workout” instead of “beach volleyball” or “volleyball workout”. Please consider adding this to be inclusive of many types of exercise!

Hello and thank you to everyone who has taken the time to add your votes and comments to this request. 

We want to let you know that we do not intend to add more activity/sport types to Strava in the foreseeable future, and this feature suggestion will be moved to a status of not currently planned.

We appreciate and understand this is not the answer you were hoping for. We strive to be as transparent as possible and provide updates to our Community when they become available. 

Please remember that we receive a large number of idea submissions, and even some  popular ideas may not make it to the implementation stage. The number of votes an idea gets is one factor among several that’s considered when our product team develops the roadmap.

For more information, review our Guide to Ideas.

Additionally, a status of not currently planned does not mean this feature suggestion goes away. It will remain open to votes and comments, and may be revisited at some point in the future.

Lastly, we sincerely hope you will continue recording and uploading your activities to Strava. Here is a list of the Sport types that we currently support. It’s always an option to set your activity to sport type “workout” and indicate more specifics in the activity name.

Thanks again for your contributions.

LOL, that is an answer!

How can you say "...to everyone who has taken the time to add your votes and comments...".
This subject is open since 01-20-2023! 1 year and half.
You should have said "we took our time, because we didn't care at all about you, and we need to clean our forum, so we close subjects that are boring, because no-one in Strava headquarters care about potential customers..."

I know @Scout, it's not your fault, you get orders from upstairs.

Setting "workout" as an answer is an answer, that's right.
Then you should remove all sports and let only one: "workout" and everybody will comment the details in the activity name.

I would love to see Volleyball and/or Beach Volleyball as available activity types on Strava.

I'm really disappointed by the response from the Strava team. Beach volleyball is one of the most popular sports in the Olympics, and the Olympics committee even set up a beach volleyball stadium in front of the iconic Eiffel Tower in Paris. It's so disheartening that Strava added the upcoming activity Pickleball but didn't even consider adding volleyball. This has really made me lose interest in using Strava.

Hi Strava guys. Volleyball is international sport and many people practices it. Definitely more then canoe, snowshoe, handcycle or pickleball. I am disappointed from your decision to not add it now ...

[NassimZ]

I’m so disappointed reading your response to the users’ request. How come such popular sport is not your plan!

I heartily share my big Yes vote to add Volleyball to the sports.
